EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the early 20th century, capturing a picturesque scene of Penzance Harbour in Cornwall. The image showcases the bustling maritime activity that once thrived within these waters between 1905 and 1910. With its rich historical significance, this photograph offers a glimpse into an era when ships dominated the dock, their masts towering proudly against the Cornish sky. From Wharf Road, we are granted a privileged view over the northern arm of the floating dock. The composition is filled with fascinating details: bollards lining the water's edge, weathered by years of use; a sturdy capstan ready to lend its strength for docking maneuvers; and an imposing crane poised to lift heavy cargo from ship to shore. The jetty stretches out like an inviting pathway into this maritime world, leading our eyes towards vessels of various sizes and shapes. Each ship tells its own story – some laden with goods awaiting unloading or loading onto trains bound for distant destinations. Photographer Arthur Philp skillfully captures not only the physical elements but also conveys a sense of life and energy through his lens. This evocative print transports us back to an era when Penzance Harbour was at its zenith as a hub for trade and travel. Preserved by Royal Cornwall Museum, this remarkable snapshot allows us to appreciate Cornwall's deep connection with both land and sea while honoring those who shaped its history through their tireless work on these very docks.
